Most 4th gen guys w/o a body lift are running 37x12.5 or 13.5, I dunno if 40's will fit under with the body lift

I have to agree, maybe with a 3" BL but i think 38s would be the biggest you could clear, especially a 15.5

Another thing you need to worry about its THAT big of a tire of the week IFS... I have nothing agaist IFS, they just wasn't designed to handle that big of a tire.

If its a street queen, I can see if last a little longer. Any type of wheeling, I see things breaking fast

lol I can imagine. I have too much future money to spend on mine, sorry haha.

Truck looks perfect as is! Any higher and I think it'll start looking like a *****.

thanks a lot for your help!
just the only reason i bought these 40s is because i bought them brand new for 2000 so hoping someone will buy them so i can buy 38s!

You'd need a 3" body to run 40s most definitely. I'm still not sure about the width, but with the right offset they would maybe clear. With your current setup, Scott is correct, you can run 38s.

As far as your truck being able to handle 40s with the right setup, I personally think it can. Granted you may wear out certain parts quicker than others but if you will be staying on the street mostly with the truck I don't think it would be that bad. You could also upgrade the components as they wear out (what I plan on doing).

I have seen only 1 lifted 4th gen RCSB and it didn't look half as good as yours. 38s or 40s, either setup is going to look awesome.
